Wikipedia:
Oleander is a post-grunge band from Sacramento, California, USA. Its name is derived from the poisonous wildflower oleander, which line the highways of Northern California. In their nine years of activity, the band released four studio albums under various record labels. Their most successful effort, 1999's February Son, includes the hit single "Why I'm Here." Oleander went on official hiatus after the release and promotion of their fourth album, Joyride, in 2004. As of 2008, the group has reunited and is working on material for a new album.

rollingstone:
The Sacramento rock band's latest album leads with "Hands Off the Wheel," one of those perfect singles, aggressive, penetrating but catchy. Frontman Thomas Flowers introduces it with a psychedelic whisper that kicks into intensity for the boisterous groovy rock. His delivery is so convincing you think he's talking to you. Lyrically, Oleander focus on risk, danger, control and abandon. "Don't Break My Fall" is about recognizing and accepting the futility of a relationship, and the new-agey ballad "Rainy Day" comes right out and says "I wanna save the world/I wanna save my self." But while the vivid "Fountain and Vine" shows compassion for the homeless, there's no sympathy for the drug abuser of "30 60 90". Fitting with the title, Joyride, these are songs of pleasure and recklessness.
